PlayOn Sports, the Atlanta, GA-based high school sports media company, appointed Perkins Miller as its CEO as part of a planned leadership transition. Founder David Rudolph, who led the company for 17 years, will remain in a senior leadership role overseeing video streaming and sports analytics.
Miller was most recently CEO of Fandom, where he grew its audience to over 350 million users and diversified its product offerings and revenue streams. He previously held executive roles at StubHub, the NFL, and WWE, helping launch the WWE Network. At PlayOn, Miller will prioritize product innovation, customer experience, and disciplined execution.
“PlayOn sits at the intersection of sports, technology, and community,” said Miller. “I’m honored to join this talented team and work alongside David to build on the company’s strong foundation, driving growth, deepening partnerships, and delivering even greater value to schools, fans, and athletes nationwide.”
PlayOn Sports offers live streaming, digital ticketing, and sports media through brands GoFan, MaxPreps, and NFHS Network.
“After an incredible experience of leading this company for 17 years as CEO, now is the right time to transition leadership while I deepen my focus on continuing to advance our industry-leading streaming and analytics solutions,” said Rudolph. “The company is well-positioned for continued growth and innovation, and I am excited to focus my role on the areas where I can make the greatest impact. I could not be more confident in Perkins as the right leader to take PlayOn into its next chapter.”
